About Nelly
Dr. Nelly Gregorian-DeLeon is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of clinical experience. She practices in North Carolina and works with people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, depression, stress, and anxiety. She speaks English, Armenian, and Persian and accepts international clients.
Her sessions aim to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and test practical ways to respond differently. She uses a mix of methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered work, and deeper reflective approaches. Conversations focus on clear goals and small, concrete steps between sessions.
She has extensive experience with domestic violence and sexual abuse situations, including work with survivors and people who have caused harm. She also helps people manage bereavement, anger, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and caregiver stress. Career concerns and coping with major life changes are part of her practice too.
Dr. Gregorian-DeLeon tends to combine structured interventions with reflective exploration. That might look like identifying a thought pattern in session, testing a different response, and then reviewing the result together. She also uses narrative and Jungian ideas when exploring deeper personal themes.
Clients can expect a pragmatic focus on skills and insight. Sessions emphasize clear strategies for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Dr. Gregorian-DeLeon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered work in sessions. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses with small behavioral experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Client-centered work prioritizes listening and helping the person clarify their own goals and values, which can be useful when facing relationship or life changes.She may also draw on existential ideas when questions about meaning, loss, or identity arise. That approach helps people name their values and consider choices when life circumstances shift. Deciding which approach to emphasize is collaborative; the therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing meetings from different locations. Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, since options are not listed here. Practical benefits include shorter check-ins when needed, easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and the ability to continue therapy across locations. The therapist will discuss which methods and session arrangements suit each person's needs and daily routine.
